Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - LIVE THREAD.

It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day. In depth discussion of events should be left to individual threads - but links to the threads or other articles is highly encouraged. This allows us to stay abreast of the situation in general, while also providing a means of obtaining specific information.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A breif description of what the graphic is would help:

To all who helped this get started, thank you!

Special thanks to An.American.Expatriate for staring the daily threads, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course, Belly Girl...

Right! and the Hat is surplus WWII....

FN Banner "quoting" Gen. Franks from briefing: Franks: The plan you see is the plan we are on

? did he really say that exactly or did Fox leave out some words..or was the question really that idiotic that this response was necessary?

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Our own press just doesn't get it...

This guy, because he is wearing a uniform of the enemy, may be taken out, targeted, shot, blown-up, etc....

Is there any possible way we can convince our own press to do the same?

"I'm
deeply
saddened"

[CasearianDaoist]

Wnat to bet that this shot was taken inside Kuwait or Egypt.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

This is just the response that a supreme commander would make to a bunch of idiots that are asking questions they have no business asking.

[Green]

OK..all you military experts on here...who has a tank like that and what kind is it?

[Poser]

I am deeply move by the fact that Dashhole is deeple saddened and... I'm back!

UNH won the regional finals in College Hockey and will be at the Frozen Four in Buffalo on April 10.

And now, back to all war, all the time.

Yes, Tommy Franks really said that. The press briefing he gave was like a 1st grade teacher showing the 6 year olds how to read.

I watched the briefing but that must have been when I was up getting coffee...gawd...I thought I must have must missed something in that banner on FoxNews LOL

[Catspaw]

I'm back, too. The Marquette Golden Eagles (which I can't stop calling "The Marquette Warriors") will be playing Kansas in the Final Four. Al McGuire is smiling.

go look at the sunday morning talk show thread...there is another part to that cartoon.

[Sacajaweau]

Kristol is nailing the press "mistatements" AND, he's using their own words. He noted that Fleisher, NINE days ago said this may be a long war.

ooops Nevermind..different cartoon

SOD Rumsfeld, re. putting our guys' lives in unnecessary danger to protect civilians: "That would not be something we would allow. We're concerned w/ human life - particularly ours."

"It's important that we win, but it's also important HOW we win."

They know what Saddam's thugs do to their comrades and to innocents. How to deal with potential threats is probably not such a difficult decision for our troops.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

It could be a Brit. tank.

It probably was broken down waiting for our repair crews to fix it and the and the Iraqui Press snuck in there for a quick gig.
